Jesus Christ....More Media Idiocy

It seems the news media is now purposefully trying to enrage The Baron with their presentation of blatantly false, misleading or misinterpreted stories.

Today's horseshit smeared on newsprint and presented as fact:

"Your shower is making you sick."

Well, sounds important right? I wonder how it's making The Baron sick? Toxic chemicals? Voodoo curse? Germs? It's germs right?

Well, The Baron sees no problem with being concerned about bacteria spewing out of your shower and into your face. But what nasty little bug is it?

Mycobacterium avium.

Wow sounds pretty official, after all the other famous mycobacterium is M.tuberculosis.

"So wait you're saying we can get consumption from our fucking showers?!" You say.

Not so fast there sport. The Baron will direct your attention to the second part of that bug's name. Avium. Where has The Baron seen that word before. Aviary (a huge bird house), Avian (of or relating to birds), Avis (a company that rents flying cars).

Hmmmmm, so this is bird tuberculosis we're talking about here. Must be kind of like the bird flu, right? In that the bird flu is deadly....even though it's not. So actually, M.avium is exactly like the bird flu. Literally no one dies from it or even catches it.

So, unless you have AIDS (untreated) or are taken immunosuppressives (but not antibiotics), or are a thousand year old geezer with 10 other health problems. You have nothing to worry about.

Nice try media, it's just too bad that the bulk of people are retards who believe everything you say.

I guess this would be a good time for The Baron to get into the bathtub installing / shower removing business.
